The Terrible Legacy
Of Rachel Carson

−

Carson’s Legacy Has Led To Golf

Facilities Being Infested With Activist-

Extremist-Superintendents

−

Summary & Overview

−

TERRIBLE LEGACY

−

Carson was a hysterical, lying, fanatжcal, female jackal, & a paranoid chemophobe.

−

She believed that all pesticides contained « DEATH-DEALING POWER ».

−

Carson was wrong about [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

Most of the allegations in Carson’s book « SILENT SPRING » concerning the adverse effects of pesticides were ultimately shown to be scientifically inaccurate & filled with anti-pesticide hate-speech & junk-science.

−

« SILENT SPRING » has been evaluated as approximately two-thirds incorrect, & hence only one-third correct.

−

Carson’s work was amateurish & non-scientific.

−

She never performed any scientific studies.

−

Carson’s concerns were unfounded because she had NO competent background, NO training, & NO expertise in matters concerning pest control products.

−

The public must recognize that Carson, & her ACOLYTES, represent the best example of incompetent, truth-challenged, fanatжcal, & deadly enviro-abuse !

−

Carson was the first environmental-extremist & the queen of junk science.

−

Additionally, Carson & her ACOLYTES are considered as the greatest mass-killers in modern history.

−

Since 1972, Carson’s ACOLYTES have implemented policies that influenced reckless & arbitrary world-wide prohibitions against the use of DDT, resulting in 30 to 50 million deaths by malaria.

−

Furthermore, validating the TERRIBLE LEGACY of Carson represents a TREACHEROUS ATTACK against main-steam golf superintendents & their facilities.

−

Carson left a TERRIBLE LEGACY to « ACTIVIST-EXTREMIST-SUPERINTENDENTS », her treacherous acolytes in the golf industry.

−

Unfortunately, Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY has led to golf facilities being infested with these extremists.

−

Golf courses managed by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » will REGRESS into forms of pest control practiced 100 years ago.

−

This is because they have adopted ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES, such as « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » & « IPM ».

−

These extremists must be DISCREDITED, just like Carson.

−

Summary & Overview

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by using the ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES of golf course maintenance.

−

Consequently, the golf industry’s main-steam superintendents must recognize that they are on a collision course with the looming shipwreck of golf-hating & anti-pesticide extremism.

−

Even though they enjoy PESTICIDE BAN EXCEPTION STATUSES from municipal or provincial pesticide bans, main-steam superintendents face some huge challenges because of their high degree of vulnerability concerning several public affairs issues.

−

It must be noted that Mr William H Gathercole was the creator of the PESTICIDE BAN EXCEPTION STATUS that allowed the golf industry to avoid being subjected to anti-pesticide prohibition for a generation & more.

−

In order to successfully deter all TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry, several CRITICAL ISSUES must immediately be addressed ― see link below.

−

Summary & Overview

−

NO UNCERTAINTIES ABOUT PESTICIDES

−

There are NO worries & NO uncertainties with [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products.

−

National regulatory agencies, world-wide, have found that pest control products DO NOT present risks of concern to human health or the environment when correctly used according to label directions.

ATTACK-STATEMENTS BY GOLF ( DOT ) COM ?

−

Has golf ( dot ) com BETRAYED the golf industry ?

−

Golf ( dot ) com, the digital edition of Golf Magazine, published the anti-golf-industry article entitled « WHAT IS AN ORGANIC GOLF COURSE, & WHY AREN’T THERE MORE OF THEM ? ».

−

It is unsettling that the « ACTIVIST-PUBLISHERS » at golf ( dot ) com would demand that the golf industry must adopt ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES, such as « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » & « IPM », that are clearly anti-golf-industry.

−

Golf course pesticide use is a « BAD THING », according to TREACHEROUS ATTACK-STATEMENTS by golf ( dot ) com.

−

It is inconceivable that golf ( dot ) com would accuse pesticide-using main-steam superintendents of acting like « MINIONS » of the so-called chemical industry.

−

It is further inconceivable that golf ( dot ) com would conspire to IMPOSE RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against conventional pest control products needed by the golf industry.

−

It is NOT the role of golf ( dot ) com to dictate policies to the golf industry ― its TREACHEROUS ATTACK-STATEMENTS must end.

−

This is an example of Rachel Carson inspiring a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES at golf ( dot ) who TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with the publication of « WHAT IS AN ORGANIC GOLF COURSE, & WHY AREN’T THERE MORE OF THEM ? ».

−

Clearly, golf ( dot ) serves absolutely NO useful purpose to the golf industry, & may even represent a SIGNIFICANT THREAT to the main-stream golf industry which must be STOPPED, forever.

Truth By Carson ?

−

ATTACK-STATEMENTS BY GOLF ( DOT ) COM

−

During the post-war years, when the scientific-technical revolution made a number of chemical innovations available in the market-place, the golf industry EMBRACED them. [ ?!?! ]

−

At the time, that made perfect sense ― pesticides were incredibly efficient, they saved time and labor, and little was known about their EFFECTS on human health and the environment. [ ?!?!?!?! ]

−

The publication of Rachel Carson’s book « SILENT SPRING » in 1962 brought some unfortunate TRUTHS to light. [ ?!?!?!?!?!?! ]

Carson Was A Hysterical, Lying, Fanatжcal,
Female Jackal, & A Paranoid Chemophobe

−

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ―

−

Background Information

−

HYSTERIA BY CARSON

−

Carson was WRONG about [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

Carson was more than just HYSTERICAL, she was actually a lying fanatжcal female jackal & a paranoid chemophobe.

−

Background Information

−

INCOMPETENCE OF CARSON

−

Carson’s concerns were UNFOUNDED because she had NO competent background, NO training, & NO expertise in matters concerning [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products.

−

Carson was an AMATEUR & NON-SCIENTIFIC reporter ― she was NOT REAL SCIENTIST.

−

The golf industry should focus on the fact that CARSON WAS INCOMPETENT, & emphasize that conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products are SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE & will CAUSE NO HARM since they have been scrutinized & approved by the HUNDREDS of REAL expert-scientists at US Environmental Protection Agency ( US EPA ) & Health Canada.

Carson & Her Acolytes Are Considered The
Greatest Mass-Killers In Modern History

−

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ―

−

Background Information

−

ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT LAUNCHED BY CARSON ?

−

The INFAMOUS Rachel Carson did not launch the environmental idiocy movement.

−

It is an exaggeration to believe that « SILENT SPRING » single-handedly launched the modern environmental idiocy movement.

−

It would be more accurate to say that Carson’s book « SILENT SPRING » was one of many signature events in the birth of the IDIOTIC let’s-protect-the-environment movement in the Western World.

−

The environmental persistence of DDT was a government & public concern well before the launching of this book in 1962.

−

Background Information

−

MASS-KILLINGS BY CARSON

−

The INFAMOUS Rachel Carson & her ACOLYTES are considered the GREATEST MASS-KILLERS in modern history.

−

Since 1972, Carson’s ACOLYTES have implemented policies that influenced reckless & arbitrary world-wide prohibitions against the use of DDT, resulting in 30 TO 50 MILLION DEATHS by malaria.

−

The public must recognize that Carson & her ACOLYTES represent the BEST example of incompetent, truth-challenged, fanatжcal, & deadly enviro-abuse !

−

Observers agree that Carson was the first environmental-extremist & the queen of junk science.

−

Carson recklessly wrote the subversive anti-pesticide book entitled « SILENT SPRING » while she was stricken & dying with breast cancer, which was diagnosed in spring 1960.

−

While writing the book, she underwent radical mastectomy in April 1960, as well as radiation treatment.

−

Given her own terminal state of health, Carson decided to wail endlessly about the supposed risks of chemicals in the environment, specifically DDT insecticide.

−

In the minds of many observers, there is NO DOUBT that Carson’s illness tainted her views regarding chemicals.

−

It is a known fact that while a person is dying due to a disease, the human mind often attempts to link the reason for the disease with a specific event or blunder.

−

Consequently, « SILENT SPRING » was Carson’s scientifically inaccurate blunder.

−

With the passage of time, it has become clear that « SILENT SPRING » was subversively flawed & horribly truth-challenged.

−

Most of the allegations in « SILENT SPRING » were ultimately shown to be scientifically inaccurate & filled with anti-pesticide hate-speech & junk-science.

−

Some observers maintain that « SILENT SPRING » was approximately two-thirds incorrect, & hence only one-third correct.

−

The failure of « SILENT SPRING » is not surprising since Carson had NO competent background, NO training, & NO expertise in matters concerning pest control products.

−

She was NEVER competent to discuss [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products.

−

In fact, Carson can only be described as a mere zoologist, spinster, cancer victim, & subverter of the truth.

−

Her acts of subversion have served as the inspiration for all environmental-extremists, including « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS ».

DEFINING ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS

−

Rachel Carson has inspired a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES, « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS », who TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with the imposition of ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES.

−

These doctrines melt under the scrutiny of science, reason, & sanity.

−

These extremist « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » serve NO useful purpose to the golf industry.

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » represent the GREATEST THREATS to the main-stream golf industry.

−

Golf courses managed by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » will REGRESS into forms of pest control practiced 100 years ago.

−

This is because they have adopted ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES, such as « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » & « IPM ».

−

These extremists must be DISCREDITED, just like Carson.

−

Background Information

−

DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS

−

In general, « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » may be described by the following examples ―

−

• Prefer to operate as activists supporting failed maintenance doctrines, demonizing no-harm-pesticides, defending their failures to satisfy paying golf-customers, reducing golfer expectations, confessing to being the cause of dead grass, & exposing their mental health issues.

−

• Choose to deviate from, & conspire against, main-stream turf maintenance protocols & performance standards for science-based & time-tested & correct methods that are overwhelmingly science-based, time-tested, correct, & disciplined.

−

• Adopt arbitrary & unnecessary & failed maintenance doctrines ― see later segment entitled « ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE ».

−

• Fail to provide paying-golfers with high-quality playing conditions & aesthetics achieved by thicker, greener, pest-free, & manicured turf.

−

• Promote organic pesticide-free & IPM & other arbitrary & unnecessary & failed doctrines, with unverifiable success stories.

−

• Demand that golf facility owners & paying-golfers shut up & put up with dead grass & useless playing conditions.

−

• Campaign to reduce the expectations of paying-golfers by promoting pest-infested & low-quality garbage dump playing surfaces.

−

• Adopt the incorrect doctrine that the use of conventional pesticides is somehow harmful.

−

• Conspire to self-impose prohibition, perhaps unwittingly, against pest control products used on their golf courses.

−

• Confess, eventually, that their doctrines have led to dead grass & useless golf playing surfaces.

−

• Blame their failures with excuses about uncontrollable mother nature ( i.e. environmental extremes ).

−

• Expect to be rewarded for their failures.

−

• Do not like being seen as incompetent.

−

• Seek to be immunized from job termination because they are incompetent & golf course conditions are unacceptable.

−

• Blame their mental health issues on grass & golfers.

−

• Allow themselves to succumb to critical incident stress ― they struggle with mental health & feel a lot of snowflake stress.

−

• Demand that treatments for their mental health issues, brought on by their incompetence, be paid for by golf facility owners & golfers.

−

• State that their worsening mental health issues will render them unable to provide high-quality playing conditions & aesthetics.

−

• Exploit the threat of suicide as the ultimate snowflake weapon of terrжr which is being used as an excuse when they shirk their responsibilities as golf superintendents.

−

• Represent the greatest threats to the main-stream golf industry ― overall, « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » do not deserve to work in the industry that they betray.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

They CANNOT BE TRUSTED, & they do not represent main-stream golf superintendents.

−

They are a THREAT to the golf industry, & they are BAD for golf business.

−

There is NO industry oversight & NO regulatory oversight concerning any of the FALSE-ALLEGATIONS by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS ».

−

Moreover, « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » is promoted by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » with UNVERIFIABLE SUCCESS STORIES.

−

They needlessly alarm & enrage the public by spreading inaccurate pesticide-hating propaganda & false-information about the golf industry.

−

In essence, these « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » can say whatever they want, & they can LIE & LIE & LIE & LIE with impunity.

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » simply DO NOT deserve to work in the industry that they betray.

−

The golf industry should focus on the fact that conventional pest control products are SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE & will CAUSE NO HARM since they have been scrutinized & approved by the HUNDREDS of expert-scientists at US Environmental Protection Agency ( US EPA ) & Health Canada.

−

Overall, when they are used properly, there are NO harmful irreversible effects to human health & the environment !

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » must be DISCREDITED.

−

The golf industry must REFUSE TO ALLOW « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » from participating & speaking at all trade association events.

−

Furthermore, the golf industry must vigorously embark on a massive public relations campaign to DISCREDIT the THREAT of « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » who employ the mis-leading & destructive term « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

Additionally, the golf industry must also establish policies for EXPELLING from its trade associations the THREAT of golf facilities that use mis-leading & destructive terms like « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » & « IPM » in their advertisements & web-sites.

−

They serve absolutely NO useful purpose to the golf industry.

Golf Course Superintendents Association of America ( GCSAA ) is especially INFAMOUS with its DOCTRINE of « FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION ».

−

GCSAA has self-designated itself as the critic against correct & disciplined main-stream golf course superintendents & their management practices.

−

GCSAA’s ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES will quickly doom the golf industry’s superintendents, who will become unable to manage their facilities without essential, YES ESSENTIAL, fertilizer nutrients.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

Main-stream superintendents must OPPOSE these LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations that have absolutely NO expertise regarding the assessment of essential fertilizer nutrients.

−

Without these ESSENTIAL fertilizer nutrients, it will be impossible for main-stream superintendents to provide what paying-golfers demand … HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF CONDITIONS.

−

It is WRONG to allege that « FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION » would be helpful environmentally.

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations must CEASE conspiring to impose the ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINE of « FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION » which represents a TREACHEROUS ATTACK against the golf industry.

−

They must STRONGLY ADOPT THE POSITION that conventional fertilizer nutrients are scientifically-safe & will cause NO harm to the environment.

−

« FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION » defies over twenty-five years of research ― this DOCTRINE WILL NOT lead to lower concentrations of fertilizer contaminants in our environment.

−

Trade associations must also STOP choosing anti-fertilizer speakers for their conferences.

−

They MUST address ALL of the CRITICAL ISSUES facing the golf industry ― see link below.

TERRIBLE LEGACY

−

This is an example of Rachel Carson inspiring a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES, the LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations, that TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with the imposition of « FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION ».

−

LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations serve absolutely NO useful purpose to the golf industry when imposing this kind of ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINE.

−

LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations represent SIGNIFICANT THREATS to the main-stream golf industry, & their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS must be STOPPED, forever.

Background Information

NITROGEN FERTILIZATION

−

The ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINE of « FERTILIZER NUTRIENT REDUCTION » will quickly doom the golf industry’s main-stream superintendents, who will become unable to manage their facilities without essential, YES ESSENTIAL, fertilizer nutrients, such a nitrogen.

−

Nitrogen is the most essential nutrient in turfgrass fertilization programs.

−

Although other nutrients are essential for thick, green, & healthy turf, nitrogen is most definitely used in larger quantities.

−

Consequently, nitrogen deficiency is very often a limiting factor in turfgrass growth & appearance.

−

The natural background levels of nitrogen normally present in the soil are insufficient to meet the expectations of superintendents.

−

For this reason, nitrogen is supplemented through a fertilization program to improve poor quality turfgrass, or to simply maintain it.

−

The goal of nitrogen fertilization is to augment this nutrient in the soil so that colour, density, & growth are improved.

−

To achieve this goal, an « ADEQUATE » amount of nitrogen must be provided.

−

The term « ADEQUATE » will be fully defined throughout this segment.

−

Nitrogen is used directly by the plant in either the nitrate and ammonium form.

−

Each of these forms is soluble in water.

−

They enter the plant through the roots in solution with water.

−

Once in the plant, nitrogen is highly « MOBILE », which means it will tend to move toward the younger turfgrass leaves.

−

Consequently, the older leaves are the first to show nitrogen deficiency symptoms, such as premature leaf death, reduced growth, & yellow colour.

−

The vast majority of nitrogen applied to turf is absorbed by the root system.

−

This is true even of most nitrogen applications in a liquid form.

−

From the roots, nitrogen moves through the plant vascular system to various sites of metabolic activity.

−

The activity of nitrogen in the soil can be complex.

−

It is affected by ― aeration, microbes, moisture, organic matter, pH, temperature, & many other factors.

−

Although nitrogen influences several metabolic processes in the plant, the most visible effects of nitrogen on turf are shoot and root growth, density, &, of course, green colour.

−

There are other beneficial effects, such as accelerating recovery from injury, improving resistance to disease and weed invasion, and improving resistance to heat, cold, & drought.

−

Conversely, nitrogen may have an adverse effect on turf growth if it is applied in surplus quantities.

−

Adverse effects may include ― excessive unwanted growth, poor hardiness to environmental extremes, and increased susceptibility to certain fungal diseases such as brown patch.

−

Evidently, applying the correct amount and type of nitrogen is sometimes more of an art form than a science.

−

Sometimes, high levels of nitrogen will need to be used.

−

Maintenance practices that will necessitate more nitrogen include ― clippings removal, high irrigation, & short mowing height.

−

Golf courses & sports fields are high nitrogen users.

−

Turf growing in sandy soils & turf worn by high traffic will need more nitrogen.

−

For every growing month, a certain amount of nitrogen will be required in order to maintain proper health, colour, density, & vigour.

−

For most turfgrass situations, the yardstick for a maintenance level of nitrogen fertilization is 1.0 pound of available nitrogen per 1000 square feet per growing month ( 0.50 kilogram of available nitrogen per 100 square metres ).

−

The required quantity of nitrogen for golf course putting greens may be higher, in a range of 1.0 to 1.4 pounds per 1000 square feet per growing month ( 0.50 to 0.70 kilogram per 100 square metres ).

−

Obviously, the entire quantity is not to be applied all at once.

−

Overall, there are NO effective IPM-style cultural-practices that will economically lower the requirements for nitrogen.

−

If a golf facility is willing to incur the expenses of renovation, there are selections of turfgrass varieties that can tolerate more moderate levels of nitrogen fertilization.

−

Overall, the golf industry must develop & publish MAIN-STREAM TURF MAINTENANCE PROTOCOLS & PERFORMANCE STANDARDS for fertilizers, based upon REAL scientific studies.

−

Fertilizers used by the golf industry are safe for the environment !

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with the « GO-BROWN ANTI-COSMETIC GOLF MAINTENANCE » doctrine.

−

They allow themselves to become distracted with ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES of « ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE » that DO NOT WORK, & have NO place in decisions concerning golf course maintenance.

−

« GO-BROWN » is being spear-headed by « ACTIVIST-EXTREMISTS » that have infested LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations like the United States Golf Association ( USGA ). [ ?!?! ]

−

If they have their way, main-stream golf superintendents will be forced to adopt the ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINE of « GO-BROWN ».

−

These LOATHSOME & FAILED trade associations are CLUELESS BEYOND COMPREHENSION.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

This DOCTRINE contradicts what paying-golfers demand … HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF CONDITIONS.

−

Golf-hating extremists want « GO-BROWN » golf courses that are #@!!% PEST-INFESTED & LOW-QUALITY GARBAGE DUMP PLAYING SURFACES THAT LOOK LIKE DEATH.

−

When it comes to golf, the newly coined phrase « BROWN IS BEAUTIFUL » is of serious concern.

−

« GO-BROWN » makes golf courses LOOK LIKE GARBAGE DUMPS.

−

« GO-BROWN » actually makes golf courses LOOK LIKE DEATH.

−

« ACTIVIST-USGA-EXTREMISTS » falsely-allege that « GO BROWN » is better for the environment [ WRONG ! ] , requires fewer inputs [ WRONG ! ] , saves money [ WRONG ! ] , & plays better [ WRONG ! ] .

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

The golf industry must oppose the USGA’s « GO-BROWN ».

−

Paying-golfers DO NOT want to play on brown depressing unplayable courses.

−

These paying-golfers demand HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF.

−

In fact, USGA’s « GO-BROWN » is indicative of UNHEALTHY & UNPLAYABLE & UNDESIRABLE TURF THAT LOOKS LIKE DEATH.

USGA represents a SIGNIFICANT THREAT to the main-stream golf industry, & its TREACHEROUS ATTACKS must be STOPPED, forever.

−

USGA, & all other trade associations, must CEASE focusing on this ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINE which represents a TREACHEROUS ATTACK against the golf industry.

−

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with « ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT QUOTIENT » or « EIQ ».

−

The FLAWED & MISLEADING & FAILED DOCTRINE of « EIQ » must NEVER be used as a tool to evaluate [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

It represents a TREACHEROUS ATTACK against the golf industry, because it is part of the conspiracy to IMPOSE RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides used by the golf industry.

−

« ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » at Cornell University & University of Wisconsin-Madison concocted « EIQ » as a FLAWED & MISLEADING & FAILED DOCTRINE FIELD USE RATINGS to MEASURE OF THE RELATIVE IMPACT of conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products on human health & the environment.

−

The « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » who concocted « EIQ » are also known to conspire to IMPOSE RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides that are desperately needed by the golf industry.

−

Interestingly, these « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » were PAID-FOR-PROFIT to consult at BETHPAGE State Park Green Golf Course, in New York State, USA, by using a FLAWED & MISLEADING & FAILED DOCTRINE of « EIQ » FIELD USE RATINGS that they were PAID-FOR-PROFIT to concoct while imposing their « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » doctrine at BETHPAGE.

−

For example, the « PESTICIDE-FREE » version of « IPM », supported by FLAWED & MISLEADING & FAILED DOCTRINE « EIQ », has led to CATASTROPHIC ECOLOGICAL CARNAGE at BETHPAGE State Park Green Golf Course.

−

This « IPM » DISASTER at BETHPAGE resulted in the LARGE-SCALE CATASTROPHIC ECOLOGICAL DISASTER & DEATH of ANNUAL BLUEGRASS.

−

By « SELF-PROHIBITING » conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products, BETHPAGE was unable to provide HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

« EIQ » RATINGS are actually LOWER for many conventional products than it is for many other mundane household items & « NATURAL » pest control product alternatives.

−

For example, THE EIQ FOR SOAP IS HIGHER THAN THE EIQ FOR 2,4-D.

−

« EIQ » is NOT a valid tool to evaluate pesticides.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

Golf courses DO NOT need additional « PROTECTION » with « EIQ ».

−

Human health & the environment are already PROTECTED by both Health Canada & US Environmental Protection Agency ( US EPA ).

−

These national regulatory agencies, & NOT the « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » who concocted « EIQ », have the ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE & ULTIMATE CREDIBILITY on pest control products.

−

These products may only be registered for use after REAL expert-scientists at Health Canada & US EPA have confirmed that they WILL NOT HARM human health & the environment.

−

Background Information

−

TERRIBLE LEGACY

−

This is an example of Rachel Carson inspiring a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES, the « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » at Cornell University & University of Wisconsin-Madison who concocted « EIQ ».

−

They have conveniently considered the hundreds of REAL expert-scientists of Health Canada & US EPA to be incompetent & / or incapable of arriving at correct scientific conclusions concerning [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

They TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with the imposition of FLAWED & MISLEADING & FAILED DOCTRINES like « EIQ ».

−

These « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » serve absolutely NO useful purpose to the golf industry.

−

They represent SIGNIFICANT THREATS to the main-stream golf industry, & their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS must be STOPPED, forever.

−

Main-stream golf course superintendents DO NOT need this « EIQ » nonsense.

−

Background Information

−

RE-ENTRY INTERVALS

−

Main-stream golf superintendents can use « RE-ENTRY INTERVALS » instead of the « EIQ » nonsense.

−

« RE-ENTRY INTERVALS » are necessary to ensure that any pest control product residues on the treated turfgrass surfaces do not pose an unacceptable risk to human health.

−

« RE-ENTRY INTERVALS » reflect the amount of time required for pest control product levels to dissipate ( either from uptake into the turfgrass plant, or by degradation through natural processes ) to a level that is well below any point of concern.

−

« RE-ENTRY INTERVALS » are established using a science-based approach to predict the amount of dislodgeable foliar residues ( DFR ) & turf transferrable residues ( TTR ) that may be deposited onto the skin from contact with any treated turfgrass surface.

−

« RE-ENTRY INTERVALS » are determined in order to protect people against potential harm from pest control products applied to turfgrasses.

−

There is no such thing as non-toxic & effective alternatives to conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products.

−

According to field experience & anecdotal evidence, as well as university studies, « GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES » are NOT equivalent alternatives & NOT safer when compared to conventional [ NO–HARM– ] products.

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

ALL main-stream golf superintendents must MEET the expectations of golfers by following MAIN-STREAM TURF MAINTENANCE PROTOCOLS & PERFORMANCE STANDARDS for science-based & time-tested & correct methods that are overwhelmingly science-based, time-tested, correct, & disciplined.

−

These superintendents must not abandon their SCIENCE-BASED & TIME-TESTED & CORRECT maintenance methods in favour of « GREEN ALTERNATIVES & other HIGHER-RISK & INEFFECTIVE & INFERIOR & FAILED DOCTRINES.

In some cases, « GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES » may be considered as unsafe as using Agent Orange, DDT, & other banned products.

−

Many alternatives are NOT federally registered & are NOT proven to be scientifically safe.

−

In many cases, these alternatives should NOT be allowed anywhere near CHILDREN.

−

Government regulations, that arbitrarily PROHIBIT conventional products but NOT « GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES », will NOT stop the public from realizing that a large quantity of deliberate mis-information is being spread by officials.

−

Main-stream superintendents DO NOT need additional « PROTECTION » by adopting the nonsense of « GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES & PRACTICES ».

−

These national regulatory agencies, & NOT users of « GREEN ALTERNATIVES », have the ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE & ULTIMATE CREDIBILITY on conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

Background Information

−

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT » or « IPM ».

−

« IPM » is INAPPROPRIATE for the golf industry, & is NOT based on scientific research.

−

The pesticide-free-version of « IPM » will NOT control damaging pest populations to an acceptable level.

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » have FALSELY-ALLEGED that « IPM » will work, & can be used to successfully to manage golf courses. [ ?!?! ]

−

They falsely-allege that « IPM » is strongly ingrained throughout the golf industry. [ ?!?! ]

−

This is clearly FALSE since « IPM » is #@!!% NONSENSE & DOES NOT WORK.

−

Background Information

−

IPM FAILURE AT BETHPAGE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » have made the HIGHLY-MISTAKEN PREMISE that « IPM » will eliminate [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products from the golf maintenance program. [ ?!?! ]

−

However, INFAMOUS « IPM » golf courses like BETHPAGE State Park Green Golf Course will NEVER become « PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

Because of the pesticide-free-version « IPM », BETHPAGE suffered CATASTROPHIC ECOLOGICAL DISASTER with the LARGE-SCALE-DEATH of ANNUAL BLUEGRASS.

−

By « SELF-PROHIBITING » conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products, BETHPAGE was UNABLE to provide HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

« IPM » represents a TREACHEROUS ATTACK against the golf industry, because it is part of the conspiracy to IMPOSE RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides that are desperately needed by the golf industry.

−

« IPM » serves absolutely NO useful purpose to the golf industry.

−

It will be IMPOSSIBLE for golf superintendents to provide paying-golfers with HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS by relying upon the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « IPM ».

−

Without conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products, golf courses will become #@!!% PEST-INFESTED & LOW-QUALITY GARBAGE DUMP PLAYING SURFACES THAT LOOK LIKE DEATH …

−

… unless STAGGERING & UNLIMITED AMOUNTS OF MONEY are provided by either government hand-outs or ultra-wealthy club-members.

−

The golf industry must OPPOSE the pesticide-free version of « IPM ».

−

Furthermore, the golf industry must SUPPORT its main-stream golf superintendents & their technicians who have trained for hundreds & hundreds of hours on the issue of pesticide application.

−

These professionals are certified for pesticide use by state, provincial, & local authorities.

−

Whenever « IPM » is adopted, there is no longer a need to employ these professionals ― all they need to know how to do is bend over & pull or scoop.

−

They will be forced to perform back-breaking manual weed-picking, which is MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE.

−

Because of the pesticide-free-version « IPM », manual weed-picking will convert these professionals into a labour force of mere weed-pickers who are forced to remove hundreds-of-thousands of weed pests manually.

−

Clearly, main-stream superintendents DO NOT NEED this « IPM » NONSENSE.

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

Main-stream golf courses cannot afford this #@!!% « IPM » NONSENSE !

−

« IPM » cannot be relied upon to properly maintain golf courses.

−

In reality, superintendents are expected to follow MAIN-STREAM TURF MAINTENANCE PROTOCOLS & PERFORMANCE STANDARDS that are based upon REAL scientific research.

−

Overall, « IPM » threatens the golf courses’ HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

Background Information

−

TERRIBLE LEGACY

−

This is an example of Rachel Carson inspiring a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES, the « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS », who TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with their adoption of « IPM ».

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » represent the GREATEST THREATS to the main-stream golf industry, & their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS must be STOPPED, forever.

−

In order to successfully deter all TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry, several CRITICAL ISSUES must immediately be addressed ― see link below.

−

The golf industry must VIGOROUSLY EMBARK on a massive public relations campaign to DISCREDIT « IPM », declaring it as a MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE.

−

Main-stream superintendents DO NOT NEED this « IPM » NONSENSE.

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

According to a surprising confession by a prominent « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENT » ―

−

Many golf facilities that have tried ORGANICS have GONE-OUT-OF-BUSINESS. [ ?!?! ]

−

We can’t just say we are going to be ORGANIC, because there are NO PROVEN METHODS.

−

There is one [ GOLF ] course in the world that does it [ I.E. VINEYARD GOLF CLUB ].

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » allow themselves to become distracted with ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES of « ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE » that DO NOT WORK, & have NO place in decisions concerning golf course maintenance.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » FALSELY-ALLEGE that the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » will somehow work, & can be used to successfully to manage golf courses.

−

They often lie & cheat about their successes with « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

« ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf courses must often resort to using FAILED practices like ―

−

• Killing weeds with boiling water ― FAILURE.

−

• Removing moss with kitchen dish detergent ― FAILURE.

−

• Manually removing pests with back-breaking & weed-picking labour ― FAILURE.

−

They even resort to using conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products … when it suits them.

−

They will apply conventional pest control products when paying-golfers are not present on the property, or when the facilities are closed.

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » argue that « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf facilities are, somehow, innovative industry leaders. [ ?!?! ]

−

If they can do it, why can’t everybody else ?!?!

−

In fact, they CANNOT because « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » is a HUGE OPERATIONAL FAILURE.

−

Unfortunately, in all cases examined so far, « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » leads to CATASTROPHIC ECOLOGICAL DESTRUCTION with LARGE-SCALE-DEATH caused by UNCONTROLLED PESTS.

−

Without conventional pest control products, « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » can only provide #@!!% PEST-INFESTED & LOW-QUALITY GARBAGE DUMP PLAYING SURFACES THAT LOOK LIKE DEATH …

−

… unless STAGGERING & UNLIMITED AMOUNTS OF MONEY are provided by either government hand-outs or ultra-wealthy club-members.

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

The golf industry must STRONGLY ADOPT THE POSITION that conventional [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products are scientifically-safe & will cause NO harm to players, workers, & the environment.

−

The golf industry must also ADOPT the policy that the ONLY course of action against RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION is AGGRESSIVE CHALLENGES through actions like LITIGATION.

−

Court action will never permanently stop golf-hating extremists, but will drain their resources while the golf industry seeks other courses of action.

−

The golf industry must ESTABLISH policies for EXPELLING « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » from its trade associations for falsely-alleging that the use of [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products harm people & ⁄ or the environment.

ORGANIC FAILURE AT VINEYARD

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » who have operated VINEYARD Golf Club have perpetuated Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by adopting the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

VINEYARD Golf Club, in Massachusetts, USA, is the ONLY « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf course in America.

−

VINEYARD has SELF-IMPOSED RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against so-called synthetic [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

This PROHIBITION was adopted because of a false-perception about the uncertainty of [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides. [ ?!?! ]

−

This SELF-IMPOSED PROHIBITION was decreed by an ill-informed & possibly corrupt local county commission.

−

VINEYARD has been forced to adopt a MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE that CANNOT possibly control pests that will DAMAGE PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

It is clear that VINEYARD utilizes methods that CANNOT possibly control pests.

−

And this PROHIBITION DOCTRINE is #@!!% NONSENSE, & stunningly huge amounts of funds & resources have been wasted on FAILED practices like ―

−

• Killing weeds with boiling water ― FAILURE.

−

• Removing moss with kitchen dish detergent ― FAILURE.

−

• Manually removing pests with back-breaking & weed-picking labour ― FAILURE.

−

At VINEYARD, there is no longer a need to employ golf course technicians with professional training.

−

All they need to know how to do is bend over & pull or scoop to manually remove weeds.

−

In fact, there is NO uncertainty about pesticides, & NO prohibition will ever be necessary.

−

National regulatory agencies, world-wide, have found that [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products DO NOT present risks of concern to human health or the environment when used according to label directions.

−

VINEYARD is an ABYSMAL OPERATIONAL FAILURE requiring staggering & unlimited funds to waste on dozens & dozens of employees performing back-breaking weed-picking labour.

−

The golf industry must DISCREDIT facilities like VINEYARD that embrace the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

At Bethpage State Park Green Golf Course,

Organic Pesticide-Free Has Been A
Medieval & Ineffective & Failed Doctrine

−

Background Information

−

ORGANIC FAILURE AT BETHPAGE

−

« ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » has been a MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE at BETHPAGE State Park Green Golf Course, in New York State, USA.

−

There is only one organic golf course in America ― & it is NOT BETHPAGE.

−

BETHPAGE is definitely NOT « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE », but rather, it is merely LESS RELIANT on pesticides, which means it still uses pesticides with impunity.

−

When SELF-IMPOSING RECKLESS & ARBITRARY PROHIBITION against conventional pest control products, BETHPAGE was UNABLE to provide HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

BETHPAGE suffered CATASTROPHIC ECOLOGICAL CARNAGE with the LARGE-SCALE-DEATH & DESTRUCTION of ANNUAL BLUEGRASS, because of a combination of factors, including ―

−

• The adoption of the pesticide-free-version of « IPM » which will not control damaging pests.

−

• The reckless & arbitrary imposition of prohibition against conventional no-harm-pesticides.

−

• The prevalence of annual bluegrass that infests the golf course ― it is highly-susceptible to pests & disorders.

−

• The incompetence of « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » & « ACTIVIST-CONSULTANTS » who operate the golf course.

−

• The abandonment of main-stream turf maintenance standards that are based upon REAL scientific research.

−

• The reliance on arbitrary & unnecessary & failed doctrine of organic pesticide-free.

−

• The failure to transition the putting greens from annual bluegrass to creeping bentgrass.

−

• The promotion of organic pesticide-free using unverifiable & unscientific success stories.

−

• NOT because of [ NO–HARM– ] pesticide use for more than 60 years.

−

Attempts had been made to adapt « INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT », or « IPM », into a supposedly more progressive [ ?!?!?!?! ] « PESTICIDE-FREE » version — supposedly bringing BETHPAGE one step closer to becoming an « ORGANIC » golf course.

−

Predictably, so-called « IPM » golf courses like BETHPAGE will NEVER become « PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

Not surprisingly, the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « IPM » will NEVER control infestations of recurring invasive weeds & destructive insects & harmful diseases.

−

BETHPAGE has been an ABYSMAL OPERATIONAL FAILURE.

−

Hyde Park Golf Course Was A
Resounding Success Because Of The
Resumption Of No-Harm-Pesticides

−

Background Information

−

PESTICIDE SUCCESS AT HYDE PARK

−

HYDE PARK was saved by [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

Because no one had applied pesticides for a long time, HYDE PARK Golf Course, in Niagara Falls, New York State, USA, was almost lost or immeasurably damaged.

−

Because of employee conflicts & lack of planning, HYDE PARK unwittingly became a « PESTICIDE-FREE CATASTROPHE ».

−

It became infested with damaging pests that killed turf.

−

HYDE PARK appeared to be unable or unwilling to provide HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

And, no one wanted to play on a #@!!% « PESTICIDE-FREE » golf course that was a #@!!% PEST-INFESTED & LOW-QUALITY GARBAGE DUMP PLAYING SURFACES THAT LOOKED LIKE DEATH.

−

A licensed pesticide applicator was hired, & the golf course was saved by pesticides.

−

HYDE PARK was a RESOUNDING SUCCESS because of the resumption of [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

NO ORGANIC IN CANADA

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » in Canada have perpetuated Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by FALSELY-ALLEGING that the MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE MAINTENANCE » has become a major trend in the golf industry. [ ?!?! ]

−

This is RIDICULOUS & WRONG.

−

What is the Canadian golf industry’s official position statements on « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE MAINTENANCE » ? ―

−

• Golf courses have not adopted a policy of no-pesticides.

−

• Canadian conditions are not conducive for pesticide-free maintenance.

−

• Acceptable playing conditions can only be achieved through the use of pest control products.

−

• These products are a necessity due to the requirement for professional turfgrasses grown in difficult climate conditions.

−

Consequently, there are NO « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf courses in Canada.

−

Elsewhere, « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf courses adopt MEDIEVAL & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINES that CANNOT possibly control pests that will DAMAGE PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

« ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » golf courses inevitably become victims of the following problems ―

−

• Pest-infested & low-quality garbage dump playing surfaces.

−

• Large-scale-death caused by uncontrolled pests.

−

• Bankruptcies & receivership & business failures.

−

They risk going-out-of-business unless staggering & unlimited amounts of money becomes available from either government hand-outs or immensely-wealthy elite golfers.

−

« ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE MAINTENANCE » has been DOOMED-TO-FAIL.

There have been four, yes only FOUR, golf courses that have PRETENDED being « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE » in Canada ―

−

• Blackburn Meadows Golf Club ― FAILED ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE.

−

• Brigadoon Golf Course ― FAILED ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE.

−

• Fiddler’s Green Golf Course ― FAILED ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE.

−

• Granby River Golf Course ― FAILED ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE.

−

They represented 0.15 per cent of all facilities ― there are approximately 2000 main-stream golf courses in Canada.

−

These FOUR are « ORGANIC » examples of ABYSMAL OPERATIONAL FAILURES.

−

They are now CLOSED & GONE.

−

They have GONE-OUT-OF-BUSINESS, forever.

−

Except Brigadoon, which no longer PRETENDS to be « PESTICIDE-FREE ».

−

They prove, once & for all, that golf courses with « ORGANIC PESTICIDE-FREE MAINTENANCE » are DOOMED-TO-FAIL.

Background Information

−

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with « ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE ».

−

They install & maintain BEE-HIVES OR POLLINATOR GARDENS on their golf courses, under the guise of adopting the RADICAL, INEFFECTIVE, HARMFUL, EXPENSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING, & FAILED DOCTRINE of « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ».

−

Main-steam golf superintendents are being coerced & intimidated by the golf industry’s « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » who concoct these practices.

−

Under the false-pretext, false public perception, & fake-news, « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » have recklessly & arbitrarily decided that [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products are somehow harming bees. [ ?!?! ]

−

Consequently, they have decided to concoct a never-ending litany of pointless practices like « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES », to no avail.

−

Main-steam superintendents are NOT RESPONSIBLE for the problems of the bee industry, & do not need to follow « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ».

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

Unfortunately, over-worked & under-paid main-steam golf superintendents are now expected to adopt RADICAL, INEFFECTIVE, HARMFUL, EXPENSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING, & FAILED « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES » that will DO NOTHING to mitigate the losses of bees by bee-keepers.

−

However, superintendents ARE responsible for satisfying playing customers & their demands for HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF.

−

Why are a few bee-keepers losing bees ?!?!

−

Because they are INCOMPETENT.

−

Bee-keepers are killing their own hives because they have NO idea what they are doing, & are simply NOT skilled to raise bees.

−

Bees are certainly NOT being lost because of the golf course use of [ NO–HARM– ] pesticides.

−

Nonetheless, « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » coerce, intimidate, & terrжrize superintendents to arbitrarily reduce pesticides, especially neonicotinoids.

−

Furthermore, superintendents are also expected to ATTRACT & PROTECT bees on their golf courses, according to « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ».

−

ATTRACT & PROTECT ?!?!

−

With the installation of bee-hives ?!?!

−

Bees are a proven danger to employee-workers as well as playing-customers.

−

There should be NO BEE-HIVES OR POLLINATOR GARDENS on the golf course.

−

Main-steam golf superintendents are NOT RESPONSIBLE for the problems of the bee industry.

−

Besides, bee-hives are NOT NECESSARY, since it is common knowledge that bees are GROWING & THRIVING throughout the bee industry.

−

Background Information

−

DANGER TO GOLFERS & WORKERS

−

Bee-hives on the golf course represent a DANGER for playing-customers & employee-workers.

−

Bee-hives attract KILLER bees.

−

The owners of golf facilities should NEVER allow superintendents to install & manage ANY bee-hives on the golf course.

−

Bee-hives attract bees that can harm, & possibly even KILL, people.

−

They attract KILLER bees.

−

What if playing-customers & employee-workers get stung ?!?!

−

What if they happen to be allergic to bee stings ?!?!

−

A sting may trigger a dangerous anaphylactic reaction that is potentially deadly.

−

Stings will also release pheromones that prompt other nearby bees to attack.

−

The owners of golf facilities will inevitably have their brains’ sued out.

−

There should be NO BEE-HIVES OR POLLINATOR GARDENS on the golf course.

−

Bees represent a clear & present danger to playing-customers & employee-workers.

−

Background Information

−

BEES ATTACK GOLF COURSE WORKERS

−

A swarm of bees ATTACKED six workers at Umhlali Country Club & Golf Estate, in South Africa.

−

The men were mowing a lawn NEAR A BEE-HIVE, causing the bees to become AGITATED.

−

A local bee expert had stated that any form of vegetation trimming or mowing grass around bees causes them to FEEL THREATENED.

−

Of the six workers attacked by the swarm, two NEEDED ADVANCED LIFE-SUPPORT.

−

The men were attended to by paramedics before being TAKEN TO HOSPITAL for further evaluation.

−

Bees are a clear & present danger to employee-workers as well as playing-customers.

−

There should be NO BEE-HIVES OR POLLINATOR GARDENS on the golf course.

−

See link below.

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION

−

« ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » must STOP coercing, intimidating, & terrжrizing main-steam golf superintendents.

−

Nonetheless, main-steam superintendents may still be required to ATTRACT & PROTECT bees, according to « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ».

−

This does not seem fair in view of the fact that there is NO proof of harm to bees by golf course products, especially [ NO–HARM– ] neonicotinoids.

−

There is NO bee crisis because of golf courses !

−

In fact, there is NO bee crisis … period !

−

Again, main-steam golf superintendents are NOT RESPONSIBLE for the problems of the bee industry.

−

Furthermore, the bees are actually GROWING & THRIVING ― see links below.

−

Unfortunately, there IS a bee crisis because of bee-hives that attract bees that can harm, & possibly even kill, employee-workers & playing-customers.

−

There should be NO BEE-HIVES OR POLLINATOR GARDENS on the golf course.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

Main-steam golf superintendents are NOT responsible for the problems of the bee industry.

−

Under the circumstances, why aren’t researchers & educators defending the golf industry ?!?!

−

Because they have become « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS ».

−

There is NO proof of harm to bees by golf course products, especially [ NO–HARM– ] neonicotinoids.

−

Why is the golf industry paying these guys who, for all intents & purposes, concoct anti-golf DOCTRINES that are RADICAL, INEFFECTIVE, HARMFUL, EXPENSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING & FAILED.

−

« POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES » recommended by « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » will DO NOTHING to mitigate the losses of bees by bee-keepers.

−

If these guys continue to remain silent about defending the golf industry … then, to blazes with them !

−

« ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » serve US ― WE are not THEIR servants.

−

There should be more stringent industry oversight over their bloated travel budgets, their lavish life-styles, their mindless research, & their damaging recommendations.

−

« ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » must STOP wasting everyone’s time on the RADICAL, INEFFECTIVE, HARMFUL, EXPENSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING, & FAILED DOCTRINE of « POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ».

−

They must invalidate the false public perception that [ NO–HARM– ] pest control products are somehow harming bees.

−

They must state that reducing the use for fungicides, herbicides, & insecticides will have absolutely NO effect on bees ― including neonicotinoids.

−

Background Information

−

TERRIBLE LEGACY

−

« POLLINATOR BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES » is an example of Rachel Carson inspiring a TERRIBLE LEGACY on her ACOLYTES, the « ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS », who TREACHEROUSLY ATTACK the golf industry with their concoction of RADICAL, INEFFECTIVE, HARMFUL, EXPENSIVE, TIME-CONSUMING, & FAILED DOCTRINES.

−

« ACTIVIST-RESEARCHERS » & « ACTIVIST-EDUCATORS » represent SIGNIFICANT THREATS to the main-stream golf industry, & their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS must be STOPPED, forever.

−

In order to successfully deter all TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry, several CRITICAL ISSUES must immediately be addressed ― see link below.

−

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with the INAPPLICABLE & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE of « SPOT-SPRAYING » a.k.a. « SPOT-TREATMENT ».

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » tend to know NOTHING about pest control, & promote bad recommendations regarding « SPOT-SPRAYING ».

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » publicly exploit the term « SPOT-SPRAYING » as a means of persuading everyone that their maintenance doctrines are somehow safer than the main-stream golf industry. [ ?!?! ]

−

The use of the term « SPOT-SPRAYING » also implies that the use of conventional pest control products is somehow harmful ― which is FALSE !

−

Any use of the term « SPOT-SPRAYING » is EXTREMELY HARMFUL to the main-stream golf industry.

−

The term « SPOT-SPRAYING » is used as pesticide-hating propaganda that is simply designed to alarm & enrage the public, & that attempts to validate the LIE & the MYTH that BLANKET APPLICATIONS of conventional pest control products are somehow harmful to the environment. [ ?!?! ]

−

The terms « SPOT-SPRAYING » or « SPOT-TREATMENT » are defined as applications that are confined to small areas such as individual weeds or small patches of weeds & plants.

−

« SPOT-SPRAYING » is used where INVASIVE WEEDS have not entirely covered the entire turfgrass surface.

−

However, « SPOT-SPRAYING » is an INAPPLICABLE & INEFFECTIVE & FAILED DOCTRINE for the control of HARMFUL DISEASES of turf, especially on the golf course, where BLANKET APPLICATIONS are absolutely necessary.

−

Small areas of visible disease symptoms is indicative of wide-spread infection, which demands BLANKET APPLICATIONS of fungicide at the highest recommended rate.

−

The primary responsibility of main-stream golf superintendents is NOT « SPOT-SPRAYING » ― it is to ensure that the paying-golfer is provided with HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » who operate with « SPOT-SPRAYING » for the control of turfgrass pests are doing a DISSERVICE to the paying-golfers who demand HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

The main-stream golf industry DOES NOT NEED this « SPOT-SPRAYING » NONSENSE.

FAILED DOCTRINE OF ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » perpetuate Rachel Carson’s TERRIBLE LEGACY with their TREACHEROUS ATTACKS against the golf industry by managing their golf courses with the DESTRUCTIVE & COSTLY & FAILED DOCTRINES of « ZERO-CULTIVATION » ( a.k.a. no-soil-aeration ) & « REDUCED CORE AERATION » ( i.e. reduced soil core removal ).

−

« ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION » DO NOT WORK, & have NO place in decisions concerning golf course maintenance.

−

By adopting « ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION », observers question the « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS’ » ability to provide what paying-customers demand … HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF.

−

Why do they choose to ignore the OVERWHELMING BENEFITS of CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION ?!?!

−

What possible benefit can be touted by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » for unilaterally stopping CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION ?!?!

−

« ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » must STOP « ZERO-CULTIVATION », & adopt a MASTER PLAN for CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION.

−

Golf superintendents « ZERO-CULTIVATION » must be STOPPED , forever.

−

Background Information

−

BENEFITS OF TURF CULTIVATION

−

CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION ( i.e. soil aeration ) is the SOLUTION to many DESTRUCTIVE & COSTLY PROBLEMS ―

−

• Compaction in the soil alleviated ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Water infiltration is improved ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Thatch decomposition is increased & wide-spread thatch problems are avoided ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Carbon dioxide toxin is better released from the soil ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Disease resistance of turf is improved ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Fertilizer applied to the soil is more effectively placed ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Heat & drought stress resistance of turf is improved ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Organic matter in the soil is removed ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Oxygen absorption in the soil is improved ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Oxygen movement in the soil is also improved ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Root system is deeper, healthier, & revitalized ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Seed germination is improved for over-seeded turf ― BENEFICIAL.

−

• Soil is loosened & easier for roots to penetrate ― BENEFICIAL.

−

Background Information

−

CRITICAL ISSUES

−

The golf industry must STOP « ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION », forever.

−

Those golf courses where these doctrines of have been adopted will tend to have poor turf & lower-quality playing conditions.

−

The primary responsibility of main-stream golf superintendents is to ensure that the paying-golfer is provided with HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS, which will be thwarted by « ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION ».

−

Background Information

−

COURSE OF ACTION ?

−

Should the adoption of these DESTRUCTIVE & COSTLY & FAILED DOCTRINES become grounds for terminating a golf superintendent ?!?!

−

In order to deter their mis-guided activism & incompetence, perhaps the MASTER PLAN for CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION should be written into superintendents’ contracts.

−

This will ensure that « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » will STOP « ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION », ensuring that paying-golfers will be satisfied with HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS.

−

No excuses. End of discussion.

−

CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION ( i.e. soil aeration ) MUST be performed, regularly.

−

Even better, perhaps « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS » who have adopted the DESTRUCTIVE & COSTLY & FAILED DOCTRINE of « ZERO-CULTIVATION » should not be considered for employment.

−

Maybe ?!?!

−

The main-stream golf industry must STOP « ZERO-CULTIVATION » & « REDUCED CORE AERATION »», forever.

−

Background Information

−

MASTER PLAN

−

Here is a proposed MASTER PLAN for CONVENTIONAL TURF CULTIVATION ―

−

For example, on golf course putting greens ― « CORE AERATION » ( i.e. soil core removal ) must be performed by the superintendent once for every 10,000 rounds of play.

−

Beyond 25,000 rounds, non-core cultivation methods ( a.k.a. venting aeration ), such as solid-tine, must be used in the overall TURF CULTIVATION program throughout the summer months.

−

For aeration operations on golf course putting greens, it is recommended that 20 per cent of surface area be removed every year.

−

With the optional Quad Tine Holder, the Jacobsen GA-24 Greens Aerator can achieve a 1 x 1 inch hole pattern & pull more material during two « CORE AERATIONS » than competitor products can pull in three.

−

With this Quad Tine Holder, 11.9 per cent of material can be removed in two passes.

−

By comparison, the Toro ProCore 648 will require 3 passes to achieve the same result since it will only remove 6.55 per cent with its 1.5-inch x 2.0-inch spacing.

−

The larger hole size ― & closer spacing between holes ― the better.

−

Changing from a 0.25-inch tine to a 0.50-inch tine will increase the surface area impacted by four times.

−

Using a 0.625-inch tine versus a 0.50-inch tine increases, the surface area impacted by approximately 50 per cent.

−

SUCCESSFUL MAIN-STREAM MAINTENANCE

−

The main-stream golf industry DOES NOT need this nonsense of ARBITRARY & UNNECESSARY & FAILED DOCTRINES of « ACTIVIST-MAINTENANCE » by « ACTIVIST-SUPERINTENDENTS ».

−

This industry DOES need to satisfy paying-customers who want golf courses with HIGH-QUALITY PLAYING CONDITIONS & AESTHETICS ACHIEVED BY THICKER, GREENER, PEST-FREE, & MANICURED TURF.

−

The main-stream golf industry WILL be SUCCESSFUL when following MAIN-STREAM GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE PROTOCOLS & PERFORMANCE STANDARDS for science-based & time-tested & correct methods that are overwhelmingly science-based, time-tested, correct, & disciplined ― see links below.

−

There are NO worries & NO uncertainties with pest control products.

−

The main-stream golf industry MUST focus on the fact that conventional pest control products are SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE & will CAUSE NO HARM since they have been scrutinized & approved by the HUNDREDS of expert-scientists at US Environmental Protection Agency ( US EPA ) & Health Canada.

−

These & other national regulatory agencies, world-wide, have found that pest control products DO NOT present risks of concern to human health or the environment when correctly used according to label directions.

−

Overall, when they are used properly, there are NO harmful irreversible effects to human health & the environment !
